Organic Oats, packed with minerals and vitamins, work particularly well for dry skin, leaving it as glossy as it is soft.

Tried & Tested

Frangipani Monoi Hand And Nail Cream

I find winter the worst time of year for dry hands and brittle nails, and I found this cream very convenient to use. It was quickly absorbed and didn’t leave my hands feeling greasy. The surprising effect was that my nails were less brittle and cuticles softer. 4/5 JP

British Botanical Body Cream

A excellent product. As well as the cream smelling amazing with blends of lavender and chamomile oil and this fragrance lasting a long time, the body cream beautifully moisturisers your skin and is quickly absorbed and a little really goes a long way. 4/5 CB

Sweet Orchid Body Cream

A lovely floral fragranced body cream suitable for every day use. This soaks into the skin easily, and has long lasting hydration. 4/5 VP
